Christmas Sunday was observed in
the Norwalk churches, yesterday. in an
appropriate and impressive manner. The
excellent weather brought out large con-
gregations at both the morning and ev-
ening services. The musical pro-
grammeapriuted in these columns on
3 Saturday were carried out in a manner
most creditable to the singers and enjoy-
able to the congregations. The sermons
were in keeping with the Christmas-
tide, and the decorations appropriately
attractive. m.“
Norwalk Methodist.
The Norwalk Methodist church was
trimmed with hemlock and laurel taste-
fully wrought into stars and crosses,
which adorned the church on oitherside.
The altar bore decorations of the same
material, artistically festooncd about the
railings and the front of the organ, and
omeither side of the pulpit were pot.
ted plants and vases of cut flowers. The
stereopticon views at the evening ser-
vice, illustrating scenes from the life of
Christ, explained by the pastor. Rev. A.
H. Wyatt, was a very pleasing feature.
The music by the large choir, with
orchestral accompaniments, was excel—
lent, and the exercises by the Sunday
school in the evening were very good.
South Norwalk Methodist.
At this church, at the morning ser-
vice, the pastor, Rev. A. S. Knvanagh,
was assisted by Rev. Dr. Seward, who
offered prayer. This venerable divine,
whether in petition or discourse, has a
remarkable command of language, and
yesterday seemed specially inspired to
invoke the divine' blessing. Mr. Kaya-
nagh preached upon Christ as a boy.
At the evening service. Mr. Kavanagh
gave the story of "The Other Wise
Man," which was most fitting for a
Christmas service, and was very clo-
quently told. The music was according
to programme published in Saturday’s
Sentinel. It was charmingly rendered
and seemed to be given with extraor-
dinarily devotional auction, and to have
a most touching effect. At the evening
service fifty minutes was devoted to
music, and whether it was an anthem,
duct, Solo or hymn that was being sung
the spirit of worship prevailed through-
out the entire service.

Strings of evergreen constituted the
trimmings at the Baptist church. They
were wrought into artistic design in the
corners of the‘cbnrch, and graced the
pulpit and organ front. (in the sides,
between the windows, were large
wreaths. The musical programme at
both the morning and evening service
was excelled. In the evening there was
abaptismal service. when the rite was
administered to Thomas Baxter.
South Nomallr Congregational.
. The Christmas service in the South
Norwalk Congregational church, last
night. was one of the most interesting
yet held under the auspices of the Men's
Sunday Evening club. The soloists
were Miss Agnes Litilejohn, violinist,
and Miss Annabel Nash, soprano. Their
numbers were most artistically rendered,
and appreciated by the large congrega-
tion. The pastor preached a good ser-
mon on “The Christmas King." The
' invocation was by Deacon .l . M. Layton.

The decorations at this church w re

made attractive by large stars form d

throughout the day were of the usual

At the Congregational church the
decorations consisted of wreaths of
green about the pulpit. and a few other
pretty adornment-l. There were Christ-
mas services both morning and evening.
In thomorning the pastor, Rev. T. K.
Noble. preached upon “Glad Tidings of
Great Joy.” The music was inspiring,
especially the pinnoand organ duet in
Merkcl‘s “Christmas March,". and the
vocal duct entitled, “Christmas,” from
Shelley, by Mrs. Nowkirk and Miss
Sherwood. The church was filled to
overflowing in the evening,‘when the
cantata "The Great King," was rendér-
ed by tlux Sunday school. This was one
of the most successful services of its
nature ever given in the church.
Charles E. Curtis, the efficient sup-
erintendent, and his faithful assistants
and Clmrlvs A. Tucker, the musical di-
rector, cannot be given too much praise
for lllllll‘ untiring efforts in tho prepara-
tionof the service. The contrulm solo
by Miss Sherwood, “The Christ Child,"
by Cmmbs, was delightful. The address
by the pastor was for the children, call-
ing their attention to the Christmas gifts
brought them by Jesus Christ upon his
advent into the world. Miss Camp prov~

a capable company. The situations are
strong and the climaxes vory povwrfnl.
The cotton mill scene in the fourth act
is a genuine novelty. The Cotton King

MISS SMITH DID THE RIGHT THING.
llcr Spiritual Adviser and Pastor Tolls Why
She Did Not Marry.
So much has
been written of lath concerning tho

for any man. Masonry is good for
what it is——a system veiled in
symbols, but it is not a religion
and never will be. It is well
enough to have an ethical stand-
ard and creed to live up to, but you
can‘t worship them, no matter how
glorious or sublime they are. You can’t
worship anything short of a personality

who said, ‘I am the light of the world,’
we have thr- one to worship. Jesus did
